Staying strong

"Cancer". CANCER! When I hear people say that, that word, to me it's a slap in the face. People talk about how serious it is or how terrible it is, but they wouldn't know. I know because I live and breathed it second hand next to my brother. I hear it at school and in stores, and just about everywere. The hard part is when people find out they assume the worst even if you can almost grasp the end, and it feels like there pulling you away, shooting you down when your so close to success. So close now, hopefully.
